A UVC pipe type Phillips TUV 16W 4P-SE is installed into the standard version of the device! It
may only be replaced by a type listed on the label of the device. UVC pipes may be changed only
by authorised expert personnel! Before the unit is opened or a UVC pipe is changed, the device absolutely
must be de-energised and the mains plug must be pulled. Never look directly into the lit UVC light
source without eye protection.
Device setup/installation
The device may be installed only in frost-free, dry rooms. The room temperature must lie between +5°C
and a maximum of +40°C.
Ventilation and air conditioning system air lines that are not installed in heated areas must be designed
with suitable heat insulation (danger when the dew point temperature is undershot) to prevent the
formation of condensation.
For components or windows with bad heat insulation properties, in case of missing construction, and in old
buildings, condensation may form on window glass at cold temperatures and in case of increased air

humidity in living areas. The surface temperature of the components must lie above the dew point
temperature of the indoor air (at least about +15°C).
In normal operation, germs or mould cannot form inside the device unit since the humidification water is
continuously treated and disinfected during operation.
Mounting
The device is intended for horizontal mounting. It may deviate a maximum of +/-1° from the horizontal
position and must be mounted to a massive wall that can bear the load. The intrinsic operating weight of
the air humidification unit must be taken into consideration for the suspension. No shocks or jolts may
affect the device. For mounting and setup, the national and local regulations must be observed. The
device may be installed only in compliance with the national installation regulations.
Electrical connection
The electrical connection of the supply and sensor line should be performed by an electrician
according to the local regulations. Before the device is opened, the voltage supply must be shut
off at all poles and secured against reactivation. If the mains connecting line of the device is damaged or
defective, it must be repaired or replaced immediately to prevent risks. This work may be performed only
by authorised expert personnel.
Water connections
The water, heating, and waste water connections must be established by an expert. For the connection to
the water supply, only the original connecting hoses provided in delivery may be used. Pay attention to the
seal tightness of the lines. The maximum water pressure of the mains water supply of 0.7 MPa and of the
water heater battery of 1 MPa may not be exceeded.
Water quality
Only mains water that corresponds with the local mains water ordinance may be used for the water supply.
The water inlet pipe to the air humidification unit should be established using optionally available
connection sets.
In case of a chlorine content over 0.1 mg/l, the standard water filter (5 μm) must be replaced by a dual
filter (5 μm/carbon). If the iron content of the mains water exceeds a value of 0.1 mg/l, an iron filter should
also be built into the water inlet pipe.
The device can be used for a maximum hardness of water of 26°dH. When this value is exceeded, the
service life of the reverse osmosis membrane is considerably reduced.
Operation of the device
Every working method that impairs the safety of the device is prohibited. All warning and safety devices
should be regularly checked for proper function. Safety devices may not be disassembled or
decommissioned.
Mounting, disassembly, maintenance, and servicing of the device
If maintenance work or repairs are performed, the device should be de-energised. The attachment or
installation of additional equipment is not permitted. In this case, please consult with the manufacturer.

8. Description of functions
8.1 Working principle
The air humidification unit works according to the principle of natural evaporation and guarantees a
constant relative air humidity that can be adjusted between 40% and 60% in the supply air. The unit works
automatically, and the air humidity is electronically monitored in the device. The indoor air can thus not be
overhumidified.
The air humidification unit is dimensioned for a maximum operating air volume flow of 250 m³/h (LBE 250)
/ 500 m³/h (LBE 500). The water tank is supplied with mains water from the mains water supply. According
to the evaporative power, a maximum of 2.5 litres of water, which is continuously placed, is located in the
tank.
The maximum filling level is limited using a floating switch and mechanical overflow. The water in the tank
is continuously disinfected using UVC light, whereby the UVC pipe illuminates the complete water tank and
evaporation surface. The UVC pipe has a radiant power of 4.3 watt at a wavelength of 253.7 nm. For
safety reasons, the UVC pipe is monitored by UV diode. This monitoring process can detect a failure,
soiling, or line breakage of the disinfection unit. If the radiant power is too low, the water is drained and a
error message is output. The unit is automatically shut down in case the UVC pipe malfunctions.
To prevent deposits during operation, especially scale deposits on the bladed rotary evaporator and the
water tank, the standard version of the air humidification unit is equipped with a reverse osmosis unit. In
the standard design, the reverse osmosis unit is integrated into the water inlet pipe between the solenoid
valve and the water tank.
A prefiltering unit for the water supply, which should be installed during the course of mounting, is included
in the scope of supply. As an additional safety measure, the water is drained and an error message output
in case of the air humidity is exceeded by more than 30% of the reference value of the water for longer tan
25 hours.
8.2 Humidity control
The air humidity is controlled using the water moistened surface of the bladed rotor and the water level in
the tank. As the water level rises, the rotor blades are submerged more deeply into the water, increasing
the surface area of the blades that becomes wet. The passing air flow absorbs moisture from the wet
blades, in accordance with a specific reference value that is set as a constant. However, as a rule the set
relative humidity is converted to the relevant absolute humidity at 21 °C (factory setting) and then
controlled.

Test strip for determining the hardness of water

Remedy of the fault only by the expert:
Check the UVC pipe, series connection unit (green function LED), and sensor board for function.
After the commissioning of the device, the function and operation should be observed for about 15
minutes.
If leaks are found on the water or air side or if disturbing noises are noticed, shut down the device
immediately.
In this case, have the determined faults remedied immediately under observance of the safety
regulations.
If something is not clear or if you have questions, contact the expert/Service department or
manufacturer immediately.
Caution!
After commissioning, the current supply may not be interrupted for longer than one day so that the
hygienic requirements can be observed.
In case of an interruption in the electrical voltage supply of more than 24 hours, the air humidification unit may
become contaminated with germs. In this case, a general cleaning of all components should be performed before
the unit is commissioned. If necessary, components must be replaced.

14.2 Settings
This shows whether the air temperature is controlled via the internal or external sensor.
In the case of the Int. Sensor display, the outlet air temperature of the air humidification unit is
constantly regulated to the reference value set in the customer menu.
In the case of the Ext. Sensor display, the outlet air temperature is regulated depending on the
external temperature sensor.
According to the mounting site of the temperature sensor (in the extract air line in case of air
heating or after the second air heater battery in case of low-temperature heating), the device
regulates the temperature to the temperature reference value. The air outlet temperature of the
air humidification unit is limited to a minimum of +16°C and a maximum of +35°C by the software.

Switch Input.
Using Control by <, the parallel control between the ventilation device and the air humidification
unit can be selected.
In the case of the Switch Input presetting, a control cable must be connected from the
ventilation device to the input of the air humidification unit. This cable makes contact whilst the
ventilation device is running and breaks contact when it is shut down.
In the case of the Air Current Measurement selection, the operational status of the ventilation
device is automatically determined using the installed microphone and the air humidification unit
is actuated synchronously (factory setting).
Elect. Heating < Elect. Heating Act<
Deact.
The Elect. Heating parameter shows the operational status for the activated heater battery.
When Elect. Heating Act. < is set, the control system is programmed for the actuation of an
electric heater battery.
When Elect. Heating Deact. < is set, the control system is programmed for the actuation of a
water heater battery.

In the following items, the relay outputs can be activated and deactivated manually.
When Elect.Heating Act. is set, the Open Mixer and Close Mixer items are replaced by

With the UVC Check parameter is set, the current light output of the UVC pipe is determined.
At the right bottom, the current value and the value calibrated underneath that (light output of the
new pipe) is displayed. In comparison with the calibrated value, the light output is shown as a
percentage.
This parameter is used to check the function of the floating switch. When the float is raised, the
">" character changes from Off to On.
The opening time for the water valve is set when the water tank is filled (water level after water
replacement).
Setting range: 20 – 600 seconds / Factory setting: 260 seconds
This parameter is used to set the refill time of the water during humidity control. The air humidity
is determined every minute. When the reference value is undershot, the valve is opened
according to a set value.
Setting range: 1 – 70 seconds / Factory setting: 30 seconds
With this parameter, the runtime of the mixer can be set.
Setting range: 2 – 30 seconds / Factory setting: 6 seconds
With the Time Interval Mixer parameter, the interval time according to which the control system
readjusts the mixer can be set.
